Abstract

Abstract: Medical simulation center is a clinical competence training institution and a research and transformation institution integrating teaching, examination and research, and its environment construction is crucial to the development of the center's work. Compared with foreign countries, the construction of medical simulation centers in China is still in the initial stage, so it is of great significance to clarify the requirements of environment construction and learn from foreign construction experience for the construction of medical simulation centers in China. Based on the current status of the construction of representative medical simulation centers at home and abroad, this review analyzes the differences in the environmental construction of medical simulation centers at home and abroad and provides guidance for the construction and development of medical simulation centers in China by combining with the published guidelines for the construction of medical simulation centers.
